Teapot Tuesday finds all 42,000 Sisters of the Traveling Teapotters (and their friends), sending love and encouragement to our very own Miss Kathleen Lammie from Alabama. Just typing her name makes me smile.
Here we have Emmy Lou, Tallulah and Helen. Actually Helens friends call her Vinnie, as I cut her ear off during the fussy cutting process. To cover her injuries I gave her a very large hat.
Oh dear, it is harder than I thought to be cheerful so I will keep this short. I hope our cards convey to Kathleen exactly how much she means to us. It is hard to believe that we have never met in real life, that is the power of her personality and generosity.
Good luck my wonderful friend. You are in my prayers and heart. Big hugs, Susie

Incredible, Susie. Your cards are works of art in a dimensional format. They take study to comprehend ALL the many sweet details that you incorporate. A lovely tribute to Kathleen with your words as well.

Oh Susie, this is so adorable and will bring a smile to Kathleen's face. I have never tried the teapot challenge, but I am inspired to do so this week. You, as usual, made a fantastic card and this one is for such a worthwhile cause. You will have to open your own orthopedic clinic for the "amputated" stamped body parts of your creations...you could do a side step card.

Sweet card for Kathleen, Susie! It is darling with all the little girls, flowers and trees. Cute personalized envelope, too. Thoughtful share of kind and caring words for her, as well.

Could I just say 'what they said'??? I've read all the above comments and they convey such love and marvel at your
artistry, my down under cheerleader. You have been blessed
with a sharp (think fussy cut) mind, talent, and wit. You use
it in a generous was to bless others...and so more abundance overflowing...
this is heartwarming and heart tugging, Kathleen will love it...

As always, Susie, you have created such a wonderful scene filled with so many fun details to look at and enjoy. I know Kathleen will treasure this - not just for the card but for the love and care behind it.
